Sterling 28
4 / 15 - score 54%
The Sterling 28 is a 28.0ft masthead sloop designed by Holman & Pye and built in wood by Upham (UK) (J. W. and A. Upham Ltd.) between 1963 and 1965.
19 units have been built.
The Sterling 28 is a very heavy sailboat which is under powered. It is stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a heavy bluewater cruising boat.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
